@Copilot commented on this pull request.

## Pull request overview

Removes the Linux launcher environment-variable workaround that forced per-monitor scaling (added previously to mitigate an OSVM memory leak), relying instead on the upstream VM fix referenced in the linked issues.

**Changes:**
- Deletes the `SQUEAK_DISPLAY_PER_MONITOR_SCALE=1` export from the Linux `squeak.sh` template.
- Removes the associated workaround comment block referencing OSVM issue #642.
